DASS Statement on Supreme Court Gutting the Voting Rights Act

Washington, D.C. –  Democratic Association of Secretaries of State Executive Director Chelsey Wininger released the following statement in reaction to the Supreme Court’s ruling that further weakens the Voting Rights Act:

“This overtly corrupt ruling delivers a long-sought win for Republicans and diminishes representation for voters of color throughout the country.

“At a time when the Supreme Court and the White House are hostile to Americans exercising their basic right to vote, it has never been more important that we elect Democratic Secretaries of State who will fight to protect the rights of all Americans to legally cast a ballot and have confidence that it will be counted.”
